The Thing That Made My Sex Life Hotter Than Ever

Sex Tip: Schedule a Weekly Game Night

We don’t mean a Scrabble or Wii competition. “My boyfriend and I have weekly ’poker night,’” says Sarah, 36. “We don’t play poker. We don’t even play strip poker. We love that ’poker night’ is our code for sex.” Penciling in a night of fun each week can create sexy anticipation for both of you.

Sex Tip: Play Dress-Up

“I have a stockpile of old Halloween costumes that always come in handy,” says Angela, 33. “Recently I wore my sailor-girl costume and made my man do various chores on deck.” No Halloween costumes at home? No prob. Throw on your man’s favorite football Jersey and pretend you’re a super fan. Or wear your glasses, a pearl necklace, and nothing else to channel your inner sexy librarian.

Sex Tip: Switch Up the Sex

“I’d been in a relationship for about four months when things got routine and boring,” says Nelly, 26. “I guess my boyfriend could tell because he surprised me with S&M! We went from passionate, soft sex to his demanding I kneel before him with my hands tied behind my back. I was shy at first but then got really into it! He was my master, and I totally got off on submitting to his every request.” If you prefer, feel free to switch roles and handcuff him to the bed.

Sex Tip: Stage a Sneak Attack

“Catching my husband off guard always heats things up fast. I wait for him to get settled on the couch with some show he DVR’d, and then I strip and pounce on him,” says Betty, 26. “I’ve also grabbed him down there when he’s at the stove cooking dinner.” That seems like a great way to work up an appetite.

Sex Tip: Try a New Toy

Sex Tip: Watch Porn Together

Says Melissa, 29, “When I mentioned to my boyfriend that girl-on-girl porn turned me on, he jumped for joy and brought the iPad into bed. We watched some sexy scenes, talked dirty, and I teased him by telling him I wished another girl was in bed with us to lick me, touch me, kiss me just like that—well, that really got him going!”

Sex Tip: Do It in the Car

“Before my boyfriend drops me off after a night out, we park around the block for some car sex. The fun part is trying to find a secluded area. And there’s always the added intensity of possibly getting caught on top of my guy in the driver’s seat with my skirt around my waist,” says Ellen, 32.

Sex Tip: Have a Lunch Date

“Sometimes when my husband works from home, I sneak to the house for lunch unannounced, get undressed downstairs, and show up in his office. The added plus is that on days that I don’t go, it makes him want me 100 times more when I walk through the door at 6 P.M.,” says Alissa, 34.

Sex Tip: Act Like Strangers

“Sometimes when we go out in a different city we’re visiting, we each pretend we came to the bar separately, flirt with others while we’re there, and then meet each other like it’s our first time ever. We always end up back at the hotel for a super-hot one-night stand,” says Kelly, 34.

Sex Tip: Have a Spa Party

“I create a mini spa on my kitchen island. Light candles, make a playlist of his favorite songs, and give him a seductive massage while wearing barely there lingerie. Then we do it on the island,” says Katie, 34.

Sex Tip: Ban the Bedroom

According to Dina, 31, “After several years of dating, my guy and I became bored with the same old bedroom routine. We decided that for a while the bedroom was off limits. We had a blast doing the deed in an array of new places including the kitchen of a bakery I was working at, the warming house at a local ice rink, the balcony of his apartment, and last but not least, the front steps of my house in the middle of the night.”
